I see them on tv concerts all the time, but those drummers can afford anything I guess.
Poppy...those drummers are playing DW (most likely) because the drums are provided by a backline company...unless they are endorsers.
I would say there is a good chance that it is not the "Drummers Choice" to play those kits. (See what I did there??)
In every situation that I have been forced to play a DW kit in a fly in situation or festival backline type of deal... I have hated it...especially if the stock heads are stiill on there! Did I mention how HORRIBLE their stock heads sound??
I just have DW as an option on my equipment rider because I see them as "acceptable" they are definitely on the bottom of the list, but I throw them on there so that i don't end up with a Pearl Forum or something! Top of the list you might ask? 1970s Ludwig or Slingerland 22/13/16!!!!
